While this is classified as under the Bursa Plantation sector, its ROE is worst than my 2 reference companies – BPlant and KLK. So I would not hunt here to look for long-term investment opportunity from a fundamental perspective.

- Traders focus on generating short-term profits by taking advantage of price fluctuations
- Investors aim to build wealth over the long term by investing in fundamentally sound assets.
